[Q] Android won't read SD. Recovery does. - XPERIA X10 General

Hello everybody.
I got a new phone so I switch the 16Gb card that came with the X10 to the new phone and the 4Gb card from the new phone to the X10.
The new phone reads both cards fine, but X10 only reads its original card. However when I enter xRecovery in the x10 I can read both cards with no problems. I have formatted the card and still cannot be read by phone when Im on android.
Both cards are fine, can be read in other phones and in the PC, what could be the problem? the x10 uses wolfbreak's GB rom, the other phone is a Froyo Optimus Black.
Regards, and thanks in advance

Sometimes Android doesn't play well with our SD Cards. As such, Download the SDCard Formatter from https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
1. Backup your SD Card
2. Reformat using the formatter
3. Transfer your data back to SD card
4. Enjoy a working SD Card
Let me know if it works.

[Q] MicroSD Card Problems

Hi, I've just got WP7 on my HD2. I had it before, and the current problem was not there, but now I have installed WP7 again, ZUNE and the actual phone does not recognize my 8GB MicroSD HC Class 4 card.
Is there any way of resolving this? As I said, when I had installed WP7 before, Zune regonized the MicroSD card, but now, does not.
Thanks in advance.
I'd follow these instructions (not necessarily all the way), but installing easeus partition will give you a better understanding of whether your sd card has been formated for wp7

Just to say, I do not have an adapter.
ahha - ok, well aside from going and buying one, i'd try the following..
try re-seating sd card.. then
goto settings -> about -> reset phone.
this will reset device and wp7 will try to format the sd card..(all data will be lost obviously)
if that doesn't help, try the above with the sd card removed,(remove the sd card while in wp7, then reset)
allow it to boot up into wp7
re-insert sd card and re-set phone again.
(this is based on experience from formating my sd for dual boot)....
did you have your sd card out when you installed wp7? cause if you did then you would have to do it all over again i think in order for your phone to recognize your sd card.

[Q] Problem with new micro sd

dear all, i already have xperia x8 rooted and installed app2sd with 2 gb default memory card from SE, right now want to change the memory card with 4 Gb Transcend Micro SDHC class 2.
i following procedure to replace the card, include to make partition (3 Gb fat32, and ext2 for rest size), but when i switch on the phone it's freeze at display Sony Erricson, .... anyone can help me to solve the problem.
tx
Does it also freeze on the old SD card and when you boot it without SD card in slot?

It freeze when i boot without SD card i slot and when i boot with new SD card.
So... if you have xRecovery and you can boot into it - restore the system. If you don't have one - use flashtool or SEUS with repair function. It's a damaged system, and I hardly believe it's because you put another SD card in your device...
Also you can try to format SD card once more on your PC.
tx all.. ..
problem solved !!, i insert new sd flashing the phone with flashtool with X8 generic firmware .. and everything goes to zero again ...
tx for your comment ;p

[Q] sf sd card isnt wp7 compatible how to revive it for other use?

hi,its my 2nd day having a hd2.
I think my card isnt comaptible to wp7
its a Rdata class 6 16gb card.
I bought a used t-mobile hd2 running on stock wm6.5
and decided to dual boot on wp7 and android
the thing is when I installed LEO70 ROM everything went well.
no reboots or anything like that showing incopability of the sd card.
BUT, apparently when I was going to prepare the sd card for partitioning as I read on guide I followed.
my card reader wont pick up my 16gb rdata class 6 card. OUCH!
even my old nokia phone rejects it and says its unformatted blah blah blah.
plugged it in again on the hd2 then went to zune and zune says 0 free space.
plugged the sd card again on a card reader and still no go.
tried another card reader and still it wont pick it up.
then tried another card reader.
this time it reads but for minutes and minutes for scanning.
no drive letter.nothing.
tried a 8gb card and ALL the reader picks up.
opened sdcard formatter and it wont pick up my sd card.
MAGDLR 1.13 wont recognize it too. all I head is the sound of a hardware being connected to the pc and that's it
please someone help me here.
I will be so glad if you could help me with this problem
I wont go back to wp7 again after I resolve this.the sd was working
how DO I revive the sd card for other use?if I canr use it for wp7
I dont wanna waste another card trying though.
note: Im currently downloading a stock t-mobile MR 3.14.531.1.exe
is this safe?and if I successfully install this will winmo 6.5 be able to format my sd? please I dont have extra money to buy another card cause all of my sd cards are being used by other phone.
thanks in advance
Get yourself a copy of SDFormatter. Put the card into your PC and run this free utility. You should then be able to do a complete format through Windows.
Your sd card is not compatiable. There are many threads in xda about this and how to format, copy partitions etc. THis thread is also useful giving you links for partition/format utility http://www.techienote.com/tag/technology
Format your card and use it for something else. Have a read of the threads in the wp7 hd2 forums, there are a few threads about which cards reported that work, I use a transcend 8gb class 6, works well.
ok thanks will try reading more
and by the way I have sd formatter but it really wont pick up my sd haha
ok thanks will try reading more
and by the way I have sd formatter and easeus but it really wont pick up my sd haha
what a shame.
another wasted money
Was reading earlier somewhere on here and they were talking about a low level formatter. Then format it using regular tools. What ever that is not sure but apparently it fixes some of these problems.

[Q] HTC HD2 Not Detecting SD Card.

Hi. I was directed to this website, because I had a problem with my HTC HD2, regarding the SD Card. I had Android installed on my sd and was booted on it. I selecting the Unmount SD Card > Erase SD Card data while booted to Android. After I restarted my phone, (it was now switched to windows 6.5) It is no longer detecting my SD Card at all. I tried reseting to factory settings but that didnt work. It is a 2 gb SD card. i dont care about the files in it, I was want it to detect the SD card with all its storage space. Any help would be greatly appreciated. =)

Take the card out, put it in a card reader, card reader goes in the PC and format to FAT32. It should work then. If it still doesn't, you could try software from this site:
http://www.partitionwizard.com/
It's a partitioning software. You can check the health of the card, it could be that it's just dead. You can probably get a new 8GB microSD for around $6.
Good luck!
Did you try changing it?
